Mindstir Media Publishing — Tue, 12 Jul 2022 16:16:10 +0000

A satirical yet real perspective on individualism, sovereignty, spiritualism and social discourse through the eyes and ears of the every-man/woman/they/it/them/mammal that hates the taste of kale, has no time or patience for kundalini breathing exercises and is just trying to get through life with as minimal damage as possible in the "New Normal."

What’s Up?…Life!

Mindstir Media Publishing — Fri, 01 Feb 2019 23:34:29 +0000

This book, while autobiographical in the first part, reflects only a segment of US history when and where the author lived and experienced in his LIFE! Growing up off the shores of an unknown city on the outskirts of Cleveland, Ohio may reflect the very being of a lot of people with an unknown possibility... This book presents collections of "sayings" gives pause to a life of uncertainty when the country was in turmoil, judgments of self and acceptability might cause the most casual reader to wonder why am I reading this, but to dig in to its reflective writings, be it sayings, a poem, or story. The meaning is sincere, and is truly a reflection... Mr. Snee has always tried to be reflective and put in the ease of moods for any setting. Writing this book of collections of many sorts only proves his desire for those who pick it up to just sit, relax, read and don't be scared to "encourage" those around you to make that valiant step in LIFE... "What's Up" is not a passage from a culturally based saying of the times, but a real question in one's own life to ask the very essence of, what is around the corner. Take the flooding in the book from a skeptical sea of turmoil, and drain all that energy into something that can be both refreshing, a boost, and yes keep one's head "above water". Many people go down to the sea to sit, take in the airs, birds, but to the many who have to sit on porches or balconies not so near the sea, this book makes it better for them to just "take a moment" out of their day. Many only wish they had the "Sea Captain", "to show them the way"... So as you read, the quotes have no "app" to ownership, use them and "spread your rainbow" to others through encouragement and desire to the total picture of, "What's REALLY Up....LIFE!" Thank you!

This book is a collection of quotes that I have penned over the past number of years. I have also prefaced each one with a short back story of the people, places, circumstances or observations that inspired the thought that led to the quote.

Hopefully readers will draw much value from these words and that these simple writings will serve as a source of comfort, wisdom and inspiration to those who take time to peruse these pages.

Intentional Attachment

admin — Mon, 21 Jan 2019 21:51:45 +0000

Understanding what it means to grow up! Responsible insight designed to improve relationships.

Todd Bingham, LMFT

My journey as a therapist began in 1996 as a MFT graduate student with a non-profit, shelter-based agency working with men and women who had abusive, dysfunctional relationships. As a licensed therapist, I started, with Ms. Ramos's help, a private corporation focused on assisting men and women build healthier, non-violent, more functional relationships.

To date, I've clinically assessed over 6,000 referrals (mostly court-ordered men and women who struggle with anger, partner aggression, and dysfunctional relationships). Further, I have over 10,000 hours running groups that help clients modify cognitive scripts, and stop their partner aggression. My interest has been on what may work in assisting these men and women to act more maturely and develop healthier relationships.

This book is a direct summary of what we teach. By taking the steps we discuss and doing the behaviors, you may create healthier, happier and more respectful relationships--not only with your family, and your partner, but most importantly, with yourself.

Theresa Ramos, CPC

Mr. Bingham and I have worked together to create programs that allow clients to achieve healthier non-violent lifestyles. We started our company, Alternative Health Consultants in 2000, and have focused our programs on presenting tools and skills that, when used correctly, assist people in making life transformations. Ours has been and always will be a mission of unity, harmony and peace.
